What’s it like working at DDB? Pros? Cons? Just wrapped up an interview for a PM role.

Hi Fishes,

Can anyone please suggest which company is better. Although I have joined Incedo a week back and getting a package of 18.5 LPA, plus I am holding an offer from HCL Technologies holding a package of 15 LPA.
I am quite confused with multiple factors, like job security and work life balance.

I had a phone screening with a recruiter (who is a TD Industries employee- not outside recruiter) I asked specifically when they were looking to hire on, he said a month give or take a few weeks. That was on September 9th. I sent a thank you followup email the next day with letters of recommendation like I had mentioned in our conversation. I sent a second follow up email asking if they had made any decisions on who will be asked for inperson interviews, he said....check comments plz 🙏

Is it mandatory to pass Barclays GSC test after completing people screening and joining after 2 weeks? I got the email now.
